"My name is Karen Sanders and Dr. Blaney saved my life. I was sinking in a puddle of fatness, and he rescued me. The very first impression that I had of him was that he is pretty easy on the eyes. However, after my first consultation with him, I realized that he is a doctor with a great deal of compassion for his patients. He is genuine and honest with how he believes you will do with the surgery. The more I went back to see him and discuss gastric bypass surgery, the more I came to respect him as a surgeon. My case is a little unusual because several years ago I had surgery to repair a hole in the top of my esophagus. (Nissen Surgery.) Dr. Blaney had to reverse that surgery, repair a large hernia, and then do the gastric bypass. Believe it or not, he was able to do all of this laparoscopic. I am now 1-month post op, 30 pounds lighter, and Dr. Blaney has continued to give 100% of his devotion to me whenever I am in the office, or when I call him. I do not think that my words have really done him justice. He is a fine surgeon, and a compassionate gentleman. I would recommend him to anyone who is considering any type of weight loss surgery.rnrnKaren Sandersrn"
